Vintage Japanese Wooden Storage Box for Hanging Scroll  

Hand-crafted and in a brown color, this sturdy and slender wooden box is made to store a hanging scroll, or kakejiku. Inside are two fixed wooden brackets used for securing a scroll in place. There are inscriptions on the box.

Typically on display in Japanese tokonoma alcoves in homes and other traditional establishments such as ryokan, traditional Japanese inns, hanging scrolls have various themes, from seasonal/holiday images to poems to Buddhist text and imagery. For additional decorative detail, it's popular to add scroll weights, or fuchin, which are tassels with heavy polished stones that hang from the bottom end caps.
